The Graduwake Ramp-up Alarm slowly increases the volume while sounding for an easy transition into the day. The large snooze bar makes snoozing a breeze.

Customer Reviews

I've only had this for a week, but I'm loving it. I bought it for the dual alarms. Super great! I don't have to keep re-setting my alarm! It also came pre-set for time. All I had to do was pick a time zone. Awesome.
Big numbers, with a dimmer feature. Somehow, as big as the numbers are, on the dim setting it's still dimmer than my old one, which was obnoxiously bright in my opinion, so I love that, too. Love that it shows the alarm time, (you press a button to see both and it's easy to find, even in the dark). I'm totally paranoid, so the fact that I can see at a glance that it's set for the correct time is great. Little icons show you if the alarm is activated, too, and whether it's for beeper or radio. The beeper ramps up in volume but I find it starts out loud. I prefer to awaken to radio, anyway. The alarm's not the most intuitive to set, but once you know how, it's easy.
The radio feature uses a dial which could get bumped, (if you're picking up a phone next to it, for example), though I've not had that problem, yet. Same thing for volume. Nice thing about the radio is the digital tuner and the manual says it has some feature to help it hold its setting. You can set it to automatically turn off, (up to 90 minutes).
LOVE THE SNOOZE BUTTON! It's right on top and you literally tap it. My old alarm clock had the worst snooze button in the world, (actually, it had the worst everything in the world. It was on of those Sharper Image daylight simulator clocks and it was a total dud). Love, love, love the snooze button. It's really easy to deactivate and reactivate for the next day, as well. Variable snooze increments, as well.
All of this is probably really similar to the features in the RC46, which is offered through Amazon Prime, but I found mine at Walmart for the same price so I picked it up there instead of waiting 2 days.
All in all a very nice product.

Numerals are big enough to see in the dark without my glasses.
The time and alarm settings are easy to use. Radio is clear/
The only negative: the shut off switch is difficult to see in the dark.
